I've been working on a design with curved metal roof lines and am having trouble creating a canopy over the main entrance. What I'm looking for is basically a barrel roof cantilevered out over the entrance and set at a right angle to the curved roof at the eaves. I tried using invisible walls to create a small room the size of the canopy with a barrel roof, but couldn't get it to blend properly. I also thought about creating a dormer, but couldn't figure out how to eliminate the walls. Any ideas on how to generate a canopy like the one in the pic on the right?
I've done most of the design in Home Designer Pro, and am using the trial version of Chief Architect to experiment with the curved roof design. Not sure what I'm going to do when the design is finalized since curved roofs in HDP are so painful to create.
Thanks,
Tom
